Relationships & Community
We are created for community, and God places people in our lives to support, encourage, and walk alongside us.
Here is my morning prayer,
Jesus, thank You for the gift of community and the people You have placed in our lives. Help us to love deeply and show up for one another with kindness, patience, and compassion. Teach us to both give and receive support and remind us that we are stronger together when You are at the center. Guide our relationships today. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 (NIV)
